Anyone who identifies with contemporary liberalism is intolerant by definition.

So what's the definition of "contemporary liberalism?" And who came up with it, contemporary liberals, or you?

Right, because the label has been hijacked by rightwingers to mean "anything I don't like." It's absurd. Then they accuse people of "running away from the label."

Actually my biggest interest in the whole Iraq War thing is did he feel that too much attention was focused away from Afghanistan and his thoughts on that.

Lets, just pause here for some lulz.... Are you infering that the Greatness that is the Good Reverend is a liberal?

You should try to remember, ideas are conveyed by researching information, vetting sources, and confirming said information. Not by regurgitating talking points given to you by your "news" station.​Don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful, but hate me all the more.

The group of shrill morons who have been acting childishly and idiotically since the moment George Bush was elected President. They can mostly be found in government, academia, the media, or on the internet; they are not like regular Democrats, who are just normal Americans that probably support their local union or who still think "liberal" is what JFK represented.

This is one reason I think labels are absolutely useless anyway.

Okay, then why does it concern you? You're not a "liberal", so don't worry about it.
